Changes made to these plug-ins are applied to new client connection requests only. Clients that are already connected to the server are not affected.

Note

Windows Media Services is IPv6 enabled. IPv6 is the newest version of the Internet Protocol and was designed to accommodate the rapidly increasing demand for unique IP addresses. IPv6 increases the IP address size from 32 bits to 128 bits to support more levels of addressing hierarchy and a greater number of addressable nodes. Not all networks are configured to use IPv6, but Windows Media Services will automatically use it when it is available.
